To make 4k scsi devices to work, allocated memory needs to be increased
accordingly
Tested in the following scenario:
modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=100 sector_size=4096
parted /dev/sdc u b p
Model: Linux scsi_debug (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdc: 209715200B
Sector size (logical/physical): 4096B/4096B
Partition Table: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 262144B 2097151B 1835008B primary boot,
prep, type=41
2 2097152B 200015871B 197918720B primary type=83
qemu-system-ppc64 -enable-kvm -M pseries -m 1024 -nographic -drive
file=/dev/sdc,if=none,format=raw,id=drive-scsi0 -device
scsi-block,drive=drive-scsi0,id=scsi0 -vga none

Some folks put a whole zImage in there, and we can easily cope
with more than 8M nowadays.

This fixes booting from a path that has an explicitly specified
unit address on a wildcard node

The bootinfo.txt parsing code assumed that the filename to the boot loader
always contained a backslash. However, this is maybe not the case if the
boot loader has been put into the root directory of the filesystem. For example
SLES 8 used "boot &device;:1,yaboot.chrp" in its boot-script. Now we look for
the &device; string instead which should always work.
SLOF also failed if there were parameters after the path to the boot loader.
Now we take care of the parameters, too.

According to the ISO9660/Ecma-119 standard, directory entries must not cross
the boundary of a sector. That means that there might be some padding after
the last directory entry that still fitted into a sector. SLOF did not take
this into account yet so it failed to find files in directories which used
more than one sector for its directory entries. Now we are taking the padding
into account so the "file not found" problems should be gone.

The parse-partition function was not able to deal with arguments that only
contained a partition number (without comma), e.g. "boot disk:1" failed.
Also limited the size that we load from a PReP partition in case the hard disk
is smaller than max-prep-partition-blocks.

Fixed two memory leaks:
- The PCI class file for network nodes did not properly close the obp-tftp
package
- The obp-tftp package used "select-dev" for setting a property in /chosen
which created some instances that were not closed anymore

The "offset" function only worked for partitions starting within the first
4 GiB of the disk.
Also increased the amount of data to be read from a PReP partition since some
clients are certainly bigger than 2 MiB nowadays.

- Added support for double and tripple indirect blocks.
- For modern revision of ext2, the inode size is configurable
and thus has to be read out of the superblock
- The group descriptor table can be bigger than one block
- Free allocated memory when closing the package

ISO9660 file names can have a semicolon followed by a revision number in the
file name. However, the code for cleaning these file names was broken, since
it removed the string pointer and length from the stack. Beside this bug,
there were two more problems: ISO9660 file names without extension can have a
trailing dot at the end, which must be stripped away. And the file names can
all be in uppercase letters (just like old MS-DOS file names), so we should use
case insensitive string compare here, too.
